“Rameshwaram Cafe Explosion Was Bomb Blast”: Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah

Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah confirmed on Friday that a low-intensity improvised explosive device caused the bomb blast at the Rameshwaram Cafe. Hours after the explosion at the well-known cafe in the centre of Bengaluru rocked India’s IT hub, the confirmation came. Siddaramaiah verified the fact that a customer’s bag contained the gadget.

Siddaramaiah said, “We are examining the CCTV footage. It was an explosive blast. We don’t know who has done it. The police are at the spot. I have asked the home minister to review the situation.”

According to the chief minister, the blast was an improvised one rather than a high explosive. Following the blast, Siddaramaiah initially stated that politics shouldn’t be involved because the last explosion in Karnataka occurred in Mangaluru when the BJP administration was in power.

What happened?

Following an explosion at the well-known Rameshwaram Cafe in Bengaluru’s Brookefield neighborhood, at least four persons were injured. Three employees and one client were injured in the incident. According to officials, their situation wasn’t critical and they just sustained minor injuries.

According to early accounts, there was black smoke in and around the cafe at 1:00 pm after an object kept in a bag exploded. According to police officials, forensic teams were gathering evidence, and tests will determine the precise reason behind the explosion.
